She explains the idea of point of view and assigns everyone a project to demonstrate their point of view to the class. Tutter struggles with the assignment --- as far as he's concerned, he sees things from a "boring old Tutter point of view," and not any differently than anyone else. After hearing about the assignment, Treelo paints some paintings to show his point of view. Meanwhile, Tutter finds a camera his Grandma Flutter gave him and decides to make a film called Mouse on Mars --- but not only does he not know much about Mars, it doesn't really represent his point of view. He joins Bear in listening to a Shadow story about the point of view of a duck and a ladybug. Afterwards, Treelo's paintings provide inspiration.

Bear returns to the Big Blue House from a business trip for Bearcraft Tools to find that everything's a mess. He left Lois in charge while he was away and it seems she was perfectly willing to go along with the kids' idea of not cleaning up so that they'd have more time to play. Now Ojo and Treelo are missing their toys --- Snow Bear and Rockboy, Pip and Pop have been stuck in one spot playing an increasingly boring game of tag and Tutter's trapped in the cheese drawer. Bear talks things over with everyone and they begin to see that maybe their time-saving idea is actually wasting time. They then have the same sort of idea about taking a bath, but Bear helps them by getting them to visualize what would happen if they stopped taking baths. In the Shadow segment, Shadow sings a song about how to make doing chores fun.

Vashirdfel Simply A Masterpiece
Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
bruener You might be wondering firstly about my review title. Well I don't often give shows / episodes a perfect 10/10 and I previously gave a 10/10 to one show but now you can make it two because I just remembered this wonderful and amazing children's show.So as a kid, I watched many shows with this being one of my favourites. Now as a 16 year old when writing this review, I'm not surprised to be honest, I still love the show to this day. All of the reviews on this seem to agree that it's an amazing children's show whilst the overall rating of 6.9/10 is kind of contradicting the reviews and is confusing.Anyway, enough of that and on to the actual show on why it's so amazing. Each episode is about teaches the children certain lessons like responsibility, friendship etc. But that might sound like an average children's show right now to you reading this 'cause the average children's show should teach kids lessons. Bear in the Big Blue House does it in such a way that it entertains kids with catchy songs to play along and of course some running gags like Shadow, Ray or Luna. The most memorable moment of any episode for me is the Luna and Bear singing the Goodbye Song segment at the end. I remember very, very well that my nanny and I sung this song all the time together and whenever I think of it these days or listen to it, I cry my tears out as the nostalgia really kills me. Where this show went I will never know. Just like many classic children shows, sadly they get washed away by new series or reruns of terrible shows which should not be the case. I'm glad that I was a kid when this was running on air, so sorry to children now watching today's crappy TV shows.It is also a very pleasant show for the child's family to watch with him / her unlike something like Dora the Explorer. Do I recommend this show? Of course, I most certainly do recommend this amazing children's show.
ianrossguy I've watched BITBBH quite a few times with my 3 and 6 year old. Although it's my 3 year old who enjoys it the most. I find the story lines well conceived and the dialogue between the characters always on a positive side(no insults at each other under the guise of humor).The thing I most enjoy with this show has been the musical numbers. I remember in particular a song that Bear did on "finding a lost thing." This stands out because Noel McNeal, who plays Bear can really belt out a tune. I find myself watching the show with my kids just to hear him sing songs.But at the same time I feel good that this show also contains a strong emphasis on teaching children worthwhile life lessons on subjects like being a good friend, potty training, conquering fears and asking for help.I recommend watching this show because it's easy as an adult to handle watching this at the same time as my kids do and me gives plenty of opportunities to share comments with them as the story lessons unfold.
kevin-294 Bear in the big blue house (BITBBH) is cool.For the kids it's educational - providing learning, hidden within a fun TV show. For the students it provides a show that is so kiddy its good. Full of songs with catchy tunes and a good singer (Noel McNeal) and fun characters such as Pip and Pop the otters and Tutter and Treelo, not to mention Bear himself.It is currently showing on Channel 5 in the UK (where I live) and is currently watched by a large number of students in the UK.Is BITBBH following suit with "The RottonTrolls" (check it out) which was also designed with kids in mind but was adopted by the student community!
imakeypr This is the most wonderful show for children of any age. Bear actually talks to the screen, and my 15 month old thinks that Bear is talking to him. It is a great show, with 5 other main characters beside Bear. There is Treelo, a lemur, Tutter the mouse, Pip and Pop are both otters and Luna is the moon. A truly creative show all around.
